Potential Fungal Zoonotic Pathogens in Cetaceans: An Emerging Concern.
Review in Microorganisms, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Over 60% of emerging infectious diseases in humans are zoonotic, often originating from wild animals. This long-standing ecological phenomenon has accelerated due to human-induced environmental changes. Recent data show a significant increase in fungal infections, with 6.5 million cases annually leading to 3.7 million deaths, indicating their growing impact on global health. Despite the vast diversity of fungal species, only a few are known to infect humans and marine mammals. Fungal zoonoses, especially those involving marine mammals like cetaceans, are of global public health concern. Increased human-cetacean interactions, in both professional and recreational settings, pose risks for zoonotic disease transmission. This review focuses on the epidemiology, clinical manifestations, and zoonotic potential of major fungal pathogens shared in humans and cetaceans, highlighting their interspecies transmission capability and the challenges posed by antifungal resistance and environmental changes. It underscores the need for enhanced awareness and preventative measures in high-risk settings to protect public health and marine ecosystems.
